I have a dell laptop inspiron 630m running windowa XP
I think i may have a virus/hijacker, recently my anti virus went crazy and
started deleting parts of normal files(Corel, sonic and others) it
recognised as virus. I tried to do a system restore but it wouldn't work
and the date of the available system restore is the date when the problems
began. I don't want to run avg again until i find out what the problem is.
I have dowloaded threatfire and run trend micro and mcaffee but it hasn't
fixed anything.
I have tried to delete the files running in a loop telling me to put in a
cd to reinstal the files such a sonic
